About Clear Street

Clear Street is modernizing the brokerage ecosystem. Founded in 2018, Clear Street is a diversified financial services firm replacing the legacy infrastructure used across capital markets.

We started from scratch by building a completely cloud-native clearing and custody system designed for today's complex, global market. Clear Street's proprietary prime brokerage platform adds significant efficiency to the market, while focusing on minimizing risk, redundancy, and cost for clients. Our goal is to create a single source-of-truth platform for every asset class, in every country, and in any currency.

By combining highly-skilled product and engineering talent with seasoned finance professionals, we're building the essentials to compete in today's fast-paced markets.

THE OPPORTUNITY

This is a foundational hire. Clear Street is seeking a highly experienced product control professional to build and lead the firm's Product Control function from the ground up.

Derivatives & SBSD / OTC Swap Dealer Readiness

Build controls and IPV frameworks for OTC derivatives including equity swaps, TRS, variance swaps, basket products, and other structured instruments as the business scales.
